16 Annals of the South African Museum. 



the removal of another oblique flake, and by the formation of some 

 small notches for the attachment of the spear-head to a wooden 

 shaft. The other stone implement is evidently a knife. It is 5 inches 

 in length. One side is flat and the other formed by the removal of 

 three longitudinal flakes. Owing to incrustation from the hot spring 

 the material of the implements could not be made out without 

 chipping them. 



Besides the stone implements there are a number of small wooden 

 articles pins, etc. clearly shaped by human agency. And there are 

 great quantities of burnt wood. Some of the logs are of large size, 

 and show that there must have been much larger trees growing in 

 the district than is now the case. I failed to detect any human 

 bones in the collection. Possibly further exploration may reveal 

 some. Till then some doubt must remain as to what human tribe 

 lived in South Africa at the time of the Cape horse, the Bubalus 

 baini, and the extinct Wildebeest.
